You can run vmglob -listall command on master and look for robot control host.
Master server # vmglob -listall |more

Thanks Gary.
1. Can you please provide the filter for this command so that it will show only robot number and robot control host.
2...vmglob and nbemmcmd..both exist in NBU 6.5.what is the basic differencebetween them?

Please do not add to your original question.
Difference between commands are easy to see for yourself.
Issue the commands and see. Or use Commands manual.
Gary has given you the command.
Grep and egrep are not NBU commands - use man pages or Google to see how to use these commands.

Thanks Marianne.
.vmglob and nbemmcmd..both exist in NBU 6.5.what is the basic differencebetween them?
Really I am unable to figure it out the difference.vmglob exist oin 5.x when we have databases on media server also.
but now in NBU 6.x when we have EMM, why this vmglob command?
Both vmglob and nbemmcmd do the sam thing?

The Global device database (globdb) has always been on the master server. Even in NBU 5.x.
In NBU 5.x, Media servers had device database (ltidevs).
The global device database is now part of Emm database and still works exactly the same as in NBU 5.x.
We are not going to get into a discussion of NBU 5 vs. NBU 7 commands and databases.
There is no point.
If you cannot see a difference, then you can choose whichever one you like.
